Designer Axes collection spring 2009 by Best Made Co.

Exclusively hand-forged and tempered from one of America’s old axe companies, then hand-painted and polished by the founders of Best Made Co. to mould their spring 2009 axe collection. The shape of all 11 axes reminds me of the Indian tomahawk and the mixture of its wild spirit and the contemporary design patterns makes the entire collection standing out in style. The thing is that only an old hardcore boy scout will probably afford prices varying from $200 to $550.

The creative engine behind Emiliana Design Studio is motioned by Ana Mir and Emili Padros, who met while doing the Master of Industrial Design in London. The comeback in Barcelona marks the beginning of their upward carrier with a huge list of awards, memorable exhibitions and of course plenty of master accomplished projects and must have products. Following are 4 sitting picks from their creative product portfolio:

Tomato
Tomato is a rethink of the traditional pouf with a contemporary twist. You get your sitting comfort via the organic eggplant form and vivid colors complementing every home interior or public space. Add the easy cleaning, because of the soft finish and convenient proportions and you’ve got the perfect pouf for your lazy afternoon reading of your favorite magazine.

Rocking Chair
And there we go, swinging sideways instead of the traditional back and forth. I can’t tell what will be the feeling and how comfortable experience this will be, having in mind the physical and gravitation laws, but that’s what the innovations are – conversation starters.

Flying Carpet
Flying Carpet turns into a comfortable and amusing three-dimensional space to sit, stretch and relax. It will not only give your room a kicking facelift, but will stick you to the floor and make it favorite place to spend your time off reading, watching TV, playing cards or whatever entertainment you prefer.

Vespa Cavallet
Talking about cult is like talking about Vespa and its drainless source of inspiration. The Vespa Cavallet is stylish stool with tailor-made base, which varies according to the seat, thus way giving a look and feel of different Vespa models. The original design idea comes as a dedication to the one and only scooter, which is taken us in style more than 60 years around the urban city areas.
